This Sunday the Advent begins. We look forward to Christmas, when we celebrate the birth of Jesus. But why celebrate Jesus’ birth and not the birth of a lot of other important people in world history? The records of the life of Jesus, which we call Gospels, make big claims about who Jesus is and what he came for. Upcoming Sunday we start to read John’s Gospel. In the prologue to his Gospel we find a most thrilling thesis about who Jesus is. A thesis for which he will bring forth the evidence when you read further. But let us first look at the thesis. What is John’s claim about who Jesus is? And what does that mean to us? You are so welcome to learn more!

TREASURE SEEKERS

Coming up in December, the children will look at Matthew’s account of the Christmas story.  Then in the new year, they will look at Jesus’ teaching later in the book of Matthew.

Lesson Title: The God Who Speaks
Text                :Psalm 19
Big Idea        : Creation reveals God’s existence and glory to all people, but we can only know how he wants us to live through his precious word.
Aim                : To teach that we should praise God as our glorious Creator, live according to his word and trust in him for forgiveness when we fall short.
